Artworks in cloth, thread and tactile form
My textile work explores how colour, texture and pattern can hold memory, identity and emotion. Using fabric, stitches and layering, these pieces move between wall-based artwork, soft objects and wearable art, often blurring the line between garment and sculpture.
Textiles allow me to work slowly and intimately with material. Stitch by stitch, layer by layer, each piece grows over time, carrying decisions, revisions and traces of the hand. I’m interested in how fabric can feel both familiar and transformed, something we know from everyday life, reshaped into a new visual language.
Insights into Roots of Radiance
Roots of Radiance tells the story of two lovers who grew apart before they ever truly came together. Each spiral represents a heart shaped by distance, longing and the quiet pull of desire. Two beings circling their own worlds, close enough to feel each other, yet kept apart by the weight of life, time or circumstance. Despite the separation, their longing didn’t fade; it deepened. What pulled them inward wasn’t urgency, but recognition, the sense that what they shared ran deeper than the reasons keeping them apart. Slowly, inevitably, they began to turn toward each other, their forms bending, unfolding, and reaching. Where the spirals meet embodies the moment they return to the root of their connection, a place untouched by fear, untouched by distance, untouched by the world’s demands. A place that is theirs alone. In that meeting point, colour and texture intensify, symbolizing not just reunion, but a love reawakened, grounded, radiant, and undeniable.
Artwork Reflection:
This piece reflects how love can stretch, bend and wander, yet still find its way back to itself. Some connections aren’t linear; they spiral. Even when life pulls lovers into separate orbits, something quiet and ancient guides them home back into each other’s hearts and arms, where time softens, and their shared heartbeat becomes the only thing that matters.
